The moment arrived! after 2 years wroking on it the book is printed!. Actually I printed it last december but I was delivering first the copies to the people taht participated in the Crowdfunding campaign. The campaign was amazing! I had pre/orders from 33 different countries from around the world and I was shipping 300 copies of my first book. Maybe it doesn’t sound a lot for you but for me without a publisher it was a lot, so I want to say thanks to all the people that participated on it.

Since most of the packages arrived to their destinations I want to share with you some pictures I’ve got from the crowdfunders.

Hello everybody! it´s been long time since my last post, I´m sorry for that! But I´m back in town and posting again for 2015. The first post of 2015 is about an amazing project I was part of in Barcelona. One of my artist friend from Berlin Matt Jones (aka Lunartik) asked me to organize with him a painting session at a guesthouse in Barcelona called ZooLoco. The owner, Steve asked us if we like paint some of its rooms and also invite some artists friends living in Barcelona… and we did it! We invited Niels de Jong, Amaia Arrazola, Reskate Arts & Crafts & Bandid8.

And thanks to Steve for the cool time at ZooLoco.

We reached the goal over 117% and we got 174 contributions from 33 countries around the world! Now it’s my duty to make the best book I can create and ship to you as soon as possible! My plan is to have it till the end of this October, I will keep you updated via Indiegogo mail service. I will also recheck all the addresses before sending the Books, just in case. I will put all your names on the Thank you page this week!

it´s been an exciting time with the crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo so far. Now we are starting the last 15 days to contribute and we are at 85 % of the goal! You are awesome!! We need now the last push to get it done! so, don´t to share the campaign with your friends and family.

I was live streaming the first chapter of the book i´m trying to finance on indiegogo and the people could interact and ask me questions! It was a lot of fun. I will repeat next week so keep tuned for more news.

First of all I want to thank you again for following my adventures around the world. Without you this blog would be not the same as it is and you are the motivation i have for keep traveling and drawing. This time I have a big announcement to make, I´m starting the crowdfunding campaing for the book about my travels in Asia! This book is the result of the first travel I did in Asia that was the starting point for this blog. the link for the campaign the campaign on indiegogo.

If you remember I was traveling 6 months in Asia meeting local artist and drawing my adventures along the way and after coming back I started to put my ideas together and after 2 years in the making I finished a comic book, my first comic book!

And now I´m asking your help to get the costs for the Book printing! It will be the first edition and you can support it by donating and pre-ordering or simply by sharing it with your friends and family. You can visit the campaign on indiegogo.

Thank you very much and I wish you #happytravels !

I met Cagri (designer on the road), a world traveler from Turkey, last year in Berlin. Since then we kept the contact and when I was ready to visit Istanbul he invited me to have a talk about my drawing-travels with his students at the Kadir Has university. It was fun to meet them! here some pictures of that day. Thanks to Cagri for the invitation.

"Illustration around the world" is a project by Pablo ientile about traveling, drawing and meeting artists around the world. The first project was around Asia from 15 sept to 17 march, and more travels are coming. Pablo is in: Berlin, Germany
